Welcome back to the tea party folks. You ready for this marathon session? Buckle up, buttercup, it's a long one today.Content warning: Discussions of racism, transphobia and homophobia. Also please be advised that there is language use in many of the links we have provided, however all of them are vetted for safety and accuracy. Jamie McGuire dramaOn October 25, Voltage Pictures director Roger Kumble (dir. "After We Collided") announced that he was teaming up with actors Dylan Sprouse and Virginia Gardner to begin filming a movie adaption of bestselling "romance" novel "Beautiful Disaster"and SOCIAL MEDIA FREAKS OUTJamie McGuire has a lot of controversial opinions and has made a lot of enemies in the romance community for her books. Please review the provided links and materials for informationThere's no ending to this one yet, it's more of an ongoing realization by romancelandia that movie/television producers continue to not pick the books that romance lovers believe will make better television/filmOmegaverseDMCA Takedown NoticeScène à faireFor more information on what omegaverse actually is, go back to last month and listen to our werewolf episodes! Addison Cain starts writing omegaverse fanfic in 2012 while living in Japan. When she moves back to the States she pursues publishing and n 2016 Born to Be Bound was released by Blushing Books, and Cain becomes extremely popular and becomes one of the leading published omegaverse authorsIn 2018 fellow omegaverse author Zoey Ellis publishes Crave To Conquer through Quill Ink Books. It's also doing well and readers are liking it...until Cain's readers start gettng into it and recognizing a llot of similarities and tropes and plot lines when comparing Ellis' book to Cain'sCain goes forth and accuses Ellis of plagiarizing (similar to Serruya/Milan) and a long legal proceeding beginsAfter Cain accuses Ellis, Blushing Books issues DMCA's against Ellis, and all of Ellis' work is withdrawn; Ellis files counternotices, and after a few months her works are resorted; THEN Cain's lawyer's issue threatening letters promising legal action is Ellis doesn't take her work back down. Ellis does not do this, and sues Cain first.In late 2018 Quill Ink files against Blushing Books/Cain in the state of Oklahoma (even though BB/Cain have no relation to that state but is where Ellis' distributor is based); Cain asks for this to be dismissed since she has no business in that state, and after she swears to the judge that she had nothing to do with the hreatening letter sent by her lawyer to Ellis, Cain is dismissed from the OK caseSo Ellis sues Cain in VirginiaThe battle between Quill and BB continues, and Quill's lawyers, in the process of obtaining all the necessary documentation to create a fair case, obtain the correspondence between Cain and BB, which reveals Cain had been the one to pursue the takedown notices, DMCA, and copyright filings...in opposition to her sworn affidavit that she had nothing to do with the whole business (and what she's been posting on her personal social media). Furthermore, Cain has no copyrights filed on her works...In light of this, Ellis and Quill file a motion to judge Cain guilty for civil contempt, perjury and to dismiss this case. Three days later Blushing offers a complete settlement, says Ellis did NOT plagiarize and dismissed the case. Ellis was not awarded any money from her suit because she ran out of funds and her lawyer left before she could fully pursue the case.RWA vs. MilanThe Romance Writer's of America (RWA) is a trade organization for romance writers and was founded by Vivian Stephens and Rita Clay in 1980 who had hoped that RWA would be a professional organization that would help promote, advance and protect romance authorsIn 2018 Courtney Milan was appointed to Chair of the Ethics Board in 2018August 2019 RWA President-Elect Carolyn Jewell tweets about blocking a problematic author they had been in business with; smart people soon realize that this was Sue Grimshaw, former editor and romance buyer for Borders bookstore. Grimshaw's boss and friend Suzan Tisdale, owner of Glenfinnan Publishing, comes out and says that this is nonsense, and Grimshaw " is no more a racist or bigot than I am."Twitter isn't happy (is it ever?), and Milan joins in on the drama session, and rips apart the 1999 book Somewhere Lies the Moon by Kathryn Lynn Davis and its portrayal of half-Chinese women (Milan is half-Chinese herself); there's fallout from this whole situation with Davis claims that she lost her contract, and Tisdale claims that she's having a hard time finding anyone who will work with her now. Tisdale files a complaint against Milan, accusing Milan of harassing behavior, bullying, threatening her career and her business, and threatens legal action if the RWA does not do something about Milan and Milan's social mediaMilan is asked to step down as Chair and she does, although she's upset due to the unclear policies in RWA's bylaws concerning social media practicesThe complaints against Milan are brought to an entirely new Committee Panel, things get weird, people keep recusing themselves, and when the panel finally meets to come to a decision on November 19, 2019, they decide to censure Milan, suspend her membership for one year and put a lifetime ban on ever holding leadership positions again. The Panel's decision is sent to the RWA Board on December 17 but it's lacking a LOT of evidence...including Milan's own statements! Despite the Board asking the Panel for more information and documentation, the Panel (and the Panel's lead, new President Elect Damon Suede) refuse to present more information, saying that the Board just needs to trust the Panel...Then Social Media gets ahold of everything...and THINGS BLOW UPOn Christmas Eve there's an emergency Board meeting and they vote to immediately rescind the ruling against MilanThat's the end of the Milan dispute...but RWA continues to be in hot water. People are withdrawing memberships, authors are pulling books from nominations, agents are refusing to work with RWA, Suede is catching heat for falsifying claims and accreditations, publishers pull out of conventions, and over 3000 members leave. Suede ends up withdrawing from his position, Davis and Tisdale say they only wanted an apology, and RWA unveils a new award in honor of Vivian Stephens in place of the RITA award annnnnd that's...sort of where we're left off at.Books/authors we mention:Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuireBorn to Be Bound by Addison CaineCrave to Conquer by Zoey EllisKennedy RyanJamie McGuireLinks:Maguire/Krumble/Beautiful Disaster"Roger Kumble Movie ‘Beautiful Disaster' Sets Dylan Sprouse, Virginia Gardner & More" (D'Allessandro, 2021)"Racist Jamie McGuire Dragged Again Upon News of Romance Book Adaptation" (Shotwell, 2021)"Jamie McGuire's 'Problematic' Past Turns Fangs Against Beautiful Disaster" (Krishnamurphy, 2021)"What's the Deal with...Jamie McGuire" (Bec&Books, 2020)"Beautiful Disaster Criticised by Fans for Jamie McGuire's Controversial Past" (Sonia, 2021)"Author Jamie McGuire dropped by agency after engaging with Proud Boys and Nazis" (HorrorMaven, 2020)Omegaverse"Copyright: The alpha and the Omega(verse)" (Whipple, 2019a)"Not Walking Away From Omegaverse" (Whipple, 2019b)"The DMCA Is Not a Weapon for Great Justice" (Whipple, 2021)Case 5:18-cv-00920-G Document 6-14 Filed 10/17/18 - Blushing Books emails courtesy Whipple"Into The Omegaverse: How a Fanfic Trope Landed in Federal Court" (Youtube, Ellis, 2020a)"Eyes Wide Open" (Bailey, 2020)"Addison Cain's lawyer e-mailed me, and it only got worse from there" (Youtube, Ellis, 2020b)Courtney Milan Twitter thread re:CainRWA Ethics complaint against Milan by Cain re:Milan's "lack of support""A Feud in Wolf-Kink Erotica Raises a Deep Legal Question" (Alter, 2020)"Drama in the Omegaverse" (Golden Angel, 2019)Ellis' lawyers counternotices against Cain"Join The Fan Fiction Deep State And Watch This Latest Video That Addison Cain Really Doesn't Want You To See" (TechDirt, 2020) Quill Ink Books Limited v. ABCD Graphics and Design Inc (5:18-cv-00920)"Omegaverse Lawsuit" (Ellis, 2018)Meredith, Empress of the Sock Puppet Army's review of Crave to Conquer | Goodreads"Discussion of Addison Cain's Alpha Claim and Zoey Ellis's Myth of Omega" (Busse, 2018)"Just Keep Breathing With Me" - POSSIBLE FIRST OMEGAVERSE by Tebtosca (2011)All Lawyers are Bastards Podcast: There Will Be KnotsRWA/Milan"The Implosion of the RWA" (Ryan, 2019)"Romance is publishing's most lucrative genre.

We're back with Kip Reed to talk about the rest of this baffling movie, which sort of explains why this episode is perhaps our most rambling and ramshackle to date. This movie just makes no damn sense, you guys. We talk obvious Mexican-American Jason Mamoa, crazed John Goodman, confusing plot lines, the film's incredibly racist undertones, and the fascinating productions of Voltage Pictures. Rate and review the show wherever you listen and tell a friend!  

It’s the final movie of the year for MONSTER ISLAND COMMENTARIES, and Travis & Lu talk about one of their favorites of 2017: COLOSSAL starring Anne Hathaway! They discuss what the film says about misogyny & toxic masculinity, how actresses are held to different standards than actors in Hollywood, why the 2010 remake of THE WOLFMAN is awesome, which beverages make them poop, and more! NOTE: To sync this commentary with COLOSSAL, pause the movie as soon as the logo for Voltage Pictures appears on-screen at the beginning. A countdown to press the play button is included in the commentary's intro. Don't forget to send your questions to us for our listener Q&A during January's episode!

Pay the Ghost har Nicolas Cage i hovedrollen som en far, hvis søn forsvinder på Halloween. Noget ondt og overnaturligt har taget ham, og filmen følger arbejdet med at finde drengen igen, mens truslen fra det onde bliver større og større. Pay the Ghost er en forfærdelig ujævn, utroværdig og u-uhyggelig film. Den evner ikke at forklare sin egen hokus-pokus-agtige hændelser, men giver os et spøgelse som med al tydelighed er en kutteklædt skuespiller. Med maske. Pay the Ghost udkommer på dansk blu-ray fra Scanbox d. 29. oktober. Hør anmeldelse af filmen lige her, og læs mere om blu-rayen på bloggen.

Good Kill har Ethan Hawke og Zoë Kravitz på rollelisten som to dronepiloter der bor i USA men lever af at bombe militære mål i Mellemøsten Det rejser en masse moralske spørgsmål i forhold til, hvordan man bør føre krig, og hvor stor forskel der egentlig er på os og terroristerne, når alt kommer til alt. Det er en spændende og væsentlig diskussion, og Good Kill starter også som en rigtig spændende og væsentlig film — men den viser sig også at være lige lovlig firkantet, og så lægger den aldrig skjul på sit politiske budskab, som den med alle midler prøver at overbevise os om. Good Kill udkommer på dansk blu-ray fra Scanbox d. 8. oktober. Hør mere om filmen i podcasten, og læs mere om blu-rayen på bloggen.

The Cobbler er en mageløst miserabel film — en såkaldt "komedie" med den meget lidt morsomme Adam Sandler. I denne film spiller han en træt skomager, der finder en magisk symaskine nede i kælderen. Den sætter ham i stand til at forvandle sig til andre personer, når han tager deres sko på. Og den evne udnytter Adam Sandler så til at lave rigtigt creepy ting — og så laver han sjov og peger fingre ad samtlige minoriteter man kan komme i tanker om. Til sidst kroner han lige sig selv om en anden Jesus-figur. Så summa summarum: The Cobbler er en absolut forfærdelig film. The Cobbler udkommer på dansk blu-ray fra Mis.Label d. 17. september. Hør mere om filmen i podcasten, og læs mere om blu-rayen på bloggen.
